Golden Eagle Art Gallery is pleased to offer an extensive collection of world-renowned artworks by Canadian wildlife artist, Robert Bateman. World-travelled and well versed, Bateman always tells a great story about each of his creations. Here is what he has to say about this piece:
"A lion can hide in grass scarcely higher than a foot. Their attack technique is a charge from an ambush. The moment before the charge, they are crouched very low, both hind feet on the ground, and both eyes on the subject of the attack. It is this moment that I have tried to capture in this painting. By the time you realize that this is more than just a field of grass, you might be thinking your last thought."
